A distribution from your traditional IRA could cost you if you're not aware of your responsibilities. Many investors are saving up for their retirement in workplace accounts like 401(k)s. Those administrators handle tasks that IRA custodians don't. And it's up to you to take charge and keep track of your hard-earned money, so you're not taxed twice. Denise Appleby is known as “The IRA Whisperer.” The Morningstar contributor has written about how to protect your IRA from costly mistakes.

Ed O'Gorman, chief executive and chief investment officer at River Wealth Advisors, says that despite headline risks, investors need to "participate, without being overexposed" to market forces, balancing risks and approaches. He notes that recent action indicates that the market is broadening out, highlighting that an equal-weighted approach recently has delivered better results and lower returns, a sign that it's a good time to diversify and rebalance portfolios into the face of the news cycle. Bob Powell, retirement columnist at TheStreet.com and the co-founder of FinStream TV, dives into new research showing that household spending tends to decline modestly over the course of retirement, typically by small annual amounts that turn into big money over the decades of retirement. He has created a "Retirement Reality Check" that lets investors see for themselves how spending reductions -- the standard pattern, even if not conventional wisdom -- change the trajectories of retirement savings and spending. With the "ETF of the Week,"Todd Rosenbluth, head of research at VettaFi, focuses on a large-cap value fund that in its three-plus year history has accumulated what may be the most accolades and honors of any fund, getting perfect marks from both Morningstar and Lipper, with a structure and management discipline that should lead to continued future success. Plus, Emily Fanous discusses survey work she did for Credible.com study which found that 77% of Americans engaged last year in risky financial activities.

In this episode of FinTech Impact, host Jason Pereira interviews Mike Wilson, CEO and co-founder of Hamachi, an AI governance layer for financial advisors that unifies data from systems like CRMs and portfolio platforms to power workflow “bots” such as a daily dossier and household brief. Wilson explains Hamachi's origin, its compliance-first guardrails, and its strategy to embed via integrations and API rather than compete for the advisor desktop. They also discuss roadmap integrations and partners, including TaxStatus, FP Pathfinder, Financial's client portal distribution, and potential research data sources like Morningstar and Zacks.Episode Highlights:00:00 Welcome to FinTech Impact + Meet Mike Wilson (Hamachi)00:30 What Hamachi Does: An AI ‘Governing Intelligence Layer' for Advisors01:09 Origin Story: From Orion Alumni to Compliant Advisor AI02:52 From Email Add‑On to Guardrailed Chat: Early Product Evolution04:38 Real Advisor Workflows: Daily Dossier & Household Brief in Action08:58 Integration Roadmap: CRM, Portfolio Platforms, and Tax Data (TaxStatus)10:52 Where Hamachi Fits: Embedded AI, API Strategy, and Bot Marketplace14:25 What's Next: Pathfinder Workflows, Client Portals, and Research Feeds23:28 Why Governance Matters: PII Redaction, Audit Trails, SEC/FINRA Compliance27:21 Rapid‑Fire Wrap‑Up: Industry Wish, Biggest Challenge, and What Excites Mike33:01 Closing Remarks, Call to Action, and Sponsor MessageResources:Facebook – Jason Pereira's FacebookLinkedIn – Jason Pereira's LinkedInWoodgate.com – SponsorHamachi.aiLinkedIn - Mike Wilson's LinkedIn Hosted on Acast.

Sheryl Rowling from Morningstar argues that the greatest danger in retirement isn't the stock market — it's the constant fear of running out of money. We will walk through her eight "anchors" from the article posted on Morningstar. Anchor 1: Confirm Your Sustainable Spending Level Anchor 2: Embrace Flexibility in Down Markets Anchor 3: Recognize That Spending Often Declines With Age Anchor 4: Create a Recession Buffer Anchor 5: Reduce Future Tax Uncertainty Anchor 6: Maximize Guaranteed Income Anchor 7: Protect Against Long-Term Care Costs Anchor 8: View Home Equity as a Backstop For our listener question: I've said before that accumulation is the easy part - and distribution is harder. But Kevin wrote in to say "wait a second… don't prices move around when you're buying or selling? So what's the real difference?" We're going to unpack why dollar-cost averaging on the way in is not the same thing as sequence risk on the way out — and why that distinction matters once you're living off the portfolio. And to wrap up the show, we'll hear from Bernie about how he is blending service & fun for an even better retirement.  Resource: Article by Sheryl Rowling in Morningstar: 8 Tips to Stop Worrying About Running Out of Money in Retirement   Connect with Benjamin Brandt: Subscribe to the This Week in Retirement: http://thisweekinretirement.com Get the Retire-Ready Toolkit: http://retirementstartstodayradio.com Work with Benjamin: https://retirementstartstoday.com/start Get the book!Retirement Starts Today: Your Non-financial Guide to an Even Better Retirement Follow Retirement Starts Today in:Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Overcast, Pocket Casts, Amazon Music, or iHeart  

Onze analist van dienst stond al met zijn neus bij de etalage voor een paar aandeeltjes Klarna, toen deze op $30 noteerde. Als een kindje dat pruimen zag hangen, o, als appelen zo groot! Maar wat kan hij in zijn handjes wrijven, want de bodem was voor Klarna nog lang niet in zicht. Na de beursgang in september verloor de Zweedse fintech 70% van haar marktwaarde. Terecht, of is Klarna de kans van de eeuw? En Trump stort beleggers wereldwijd weer in de onzekerheid met zijn heffingenheisa. Goed nieuws voor Azië, waar de nieuwe heffingen lager uitpakken dan de vorige. In het VK zullen ze daarentegen minder staan te springen. Wat is er dit weekend nou precies gebeurd, en wat betekent dat voor jou? Ook daar is genoeg om uit te pakken.

This is the 2nd in the sermon series titled “Strange Encounters of the Divine Kind” from Greenfield Presbyterian Church in Berkley, MI. The Scriptures are Matthew 17:1-9 and 2 Peter 1:16-21 Matthew 17:1-9 Jesus' transformation 17 Six days later Jesus took Peter, James, and John his brother, and brought them to the top of a very high mountain. 2 He was transformed in front of them. His face shone like the sun, and his clothes became as white as light. 3 Moses and Elijah appeared to them, talking with Jesus. 4 Peter reacted to all of this by saying to Jesus, “Lord, it's good that we're here. If you want, I'll make three shrines: one for you, one for Moses, and one for Elijah.” 5 While he was still speaking, look, a bright cloud overshadowed them. A voice from the cloud said, “This is my Son whom I dearly love. I am very pleased with him. Listen to him!” 6 Hearing this, the disciples fell on their faces, filled with awe. 7 But Jesus came and touched them. “Get up,” he said. “Don't be afraid.” 8 When they looked up, they saw no one except Jesus. 9 As they were coming down the mountain, Jesus commanded them, “Don't tell anybody about the vision until the Human One is raised from the dead.” 2 Peter 1:16-21 Christ's return is true 16 We didn't repeat crafty myths when we told you about the powerful coming of our Lord Jesus Christ. Quite the contrary, we witnessed his majesty with our own eyes. 17 He received honor and glory from God the Father when a voice came to him from the magnificent glory, saying, “This is my dearly loved Son, with whom I am well-pleased.” 18 We ourselves heard this voice from heaven while we were with him on the holy mountain. 19 In addition, we have a most reliable prophetic word, and you would do well to pay attention to it, just as you would to a lamp shining in a dark place, until the day dawns and the morning star rises in your hearts. 20 Most important, you must know that no prophecy of scripture represents the prophet's own understanding of things, 21 because no prophecy ever came by human will. Instead, men and women led by the Holy Spirit spoke from God.

In this message from Revelation 2:18–29, the church at Thyatira is revealed as a congregation that was thriving in love, faith, service, and spiritual growth—yet dangerously compromised at its core. Through the striking image of a healthy body hiding a life-threatening disease, this sermon exposes the subtle danger of cultural compromise and the high cost of tolerating false teaching in the name of love or survival. Ultimately, it is a sobering yet hope-filled call for the believer to hold tightly to Christ, reject compromise, and cling to the promise of the Morning Star.

The 60/40 portfolio has proven it's here to stay, but it can benefit from a refresh like other classics. The total portfolio approach refines the 60/40. It takes a closer look at the components of the plain-vanilla portfolio and considers how risky they are. The goal is to help investors stay disciplined as market conditions change for the better or worse. Jason Kephart has written about the total portfolio approach. He's a senior principal of multi-asset  manager research for Morningstar.

Het lijkt deze week pas goed te zijn doorgedrongen tot de media: de belasting op vermogen in box 3 wordt drastisch verhoogd. Zelfs over niet gerealiseerde winsten, de 'papieren' koerswinsten, moet je een belasting van 36 procent afdragen. "Het ergste", zegt Ralph Wessels van ABN Amro, "is dat dit juist de kleine beleggers onevenredig hard raakt. De grote beleggers kunnen beleggen in hun BV en vallen dan buiten box 3. Deze forse belasting werkt niet bepaald nivellerend." Voor mensen die hebben belegd voor hun pensioen is dit een hard gelag. Ook Riaan Prinsloo van ING ziet er niets in. "De EU wil juist stimuleren dat mensen meer gaan beleggen, zodat Europa sterker wordt, meer kan investeren in bijvoorbeeld defensie." Riaan ziet niet hoe deze belasting Nederlandse beleggers nog enthousiast zal maken om meer in Europa te beleggen. De draconische belastingwet moet nog door de Eerste Kamer aangenomen worden. Is er niets positiefs te melden? Jawel, beide experts zijn, gegeven de geopolitieke onzekerheden, positief over de beurs. De groei van de wereldeconomie trek aan en ook de winstgroei van bedrijven, in alle regio's, is positief. Verder in de podcast aandacht voor JD.com, die de aanval opent op online winkels in Nederland en over de populariteit van Shell onder Nederlandse beleggers. We bespreken de cijfers van o.a. Besi, Aegon, ASR en Walmart. Natuurlijk bespreken we de luisteraarsvragen en geven de experts hun tips. Riaan tipt een ETF met de ISIN-code IE00B3WJKG14, Ralph tipt ook een ETF die de ISIN-code LU2504564761 heeft. Geniet van de podcast! Let op: alleen het eerste deel is vrij te beluisteren.

VanEck ETF’s (advertorial) Deze week is ook weer het tweewekelijks gesprek te beluisteren met Martijn Rozemuller, ceo van VanEckETF’s, de partner van BeursTalk. In deze aflevering bespreken we de sterk toegenomen interesse van beleggers in dividendaandelen. Bij VanEck is de Morningstar Developed Markets Dividend Leaders ETF, na de VanEck Defense ETF, de grootste groeier. Opmerkelijk, want op het eerste gezicht is een breed gespreide ETF met degelijke bedrijven op het eerste gezicht nogal saai. Maar, zo legt Martijn uit, saai is het nieuwe sexy. En sexy met een reden, want naast een mooi dividendrendement laten de aandelen in de ETF vaak ook een nette koersstijging zien. Morningstar heeft een mooie index gemaakt met bedrijven die al 10 jaar een degelijke performance laten zien Een ander aantrekkelijk punt voor Nederlandse beleggers is dat de ETF in de Nederlandse fondsenparaplu zit. De ETF heeft de status van fiscale beleggingsinstelling. Dat betekent dat beleggers de ingehouden dividendbelasting terugkrijgen! Geniet van de podcast!

Morningstar's Brett Husslein calls Walmart's (WMT) earnings beat “modest” and notes that while its guidance is conservative, it has a pattern of increasing its expectations for the year as it progresses. He walks through his highlights from the report, including global ad revenue growth and overall margins. However, he has a $62 fair value estimate, a steep drop from current levels. Brett argues that the market expects a lot from Walmart going forward compared to its historical valuation.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Options involve risks and are not suitable for all investors.

En el Foro de la Inversión, José Costales, director general de Ábaco Capital, explica el posicionamiento y la estrategia de esta gestora independiente española, especializada en gestión activa y con 18 años de trayectoria desde su fundación en 2008. Ábaco Capital se define como una firma flexible que analiza en profundidad la estructura de capital de las compañías para invertir allí dónde detecta mayor valor, ya sea en crédito o en renta variable. Aunque la estrategia es mixta, la casa se considera especialista en crédito corporativo, con un enfoque muy centrado en estudiar la capacidad de repago, el balance y los activos reales que respaldan la deuda de las compañías. Actualmente, Ábaco Capital encuentra oportunidades principalmente en emisiones corporativas sin rating o en high yield, pero con fuertes coberturas de activos, que en muchos casos multiplican por más de dos veces y media la deuda neta. Se trata de emisiones pequeñas, poco seguidas por el mercado, lo que permite capturar rentabilidades atractivas. La cartera mantiene una duración corta, en torno a dos años, con una rentabilidad a vencimiento cercana al 4% en euros, evitando asumir riesgo excesivo de duración. Sectores como el gas e infraestructuras concentran parte de las oportunidades actuales. La estrategia principal, Ábaco Renta Fija Mixta Global, combina hasta un 70% en renta fija y un 30% en renta variable. En estos momentos, la exposición neta a bolsa ronda el 18%. En la parte de renta variable, la firma está especialmente posicionada en mercados emergentes y en pequeñas y medianas compañías europeas con valoraciones atractivas, priorizando empresas líderes en nichos concretos, con equipos gestores alineados y ventajas competitivas sostenibles. También mantienen exposición a energía, consumo e infraestructuras en países como Turquía o India. Desde su lanzamiento en 2008, el fondo acumula una rentabilidad anualizada del 5,20%, con cinco estrellas Morningstar a todos los plazos y situándose en el primer percentil a cinco años, con un 8,36% anualizado en ese periodo. Está dirigido a inversores que buscan preservar capital y obtener entre 200 y 300 puntos básicos por encima de la inflación en el medio plazo, con un horizonte recomendado de al menos tres años.

If you would rather not listen to the guys’ banter about Jacob's upcoming move to Iowa, Jim’s garden planning, and a listener correction about the word “imbibe” you can skip ahead to (33:30). Chris's SummaryJim and I are joined by Jacob Vonloh as we discuss using Buffered ETFs prompted by a Morningstar article titled “Buffer ETFs Are Not for Everyone.” We explain how defined outcome ETFs use options to provide an explicit amount of loss protection over a given period while limiting potential gains, and we outline why these products are generally suboptimal for long-term investors. We then connect this to investment positioning, focusing on risk capacity, distribution planning, and why dollars assigned to delay-period Minimum Dignity Floor and Go-Go spending may require a degree of principal protection. Jim's “Pithy” SummaryChris and I are joined by Jacob Vonloh as we take a listener-submitted Morningstar article—“Buffer ETFs are not for Everyone”—and use it to kick off what is going to be a series on principal protection. Morningstar does a very good job in this article laying out what it likes about buffered products, and it also makes some excellent points on where these types of products would fit and where they don't fit. They're not for everybody, but they could be of interest in certain cases, in a certain application, and we're going to share how we use them. What I want to do in this series is broaden the conversation. Buffered ETFs are just one type of principal protected product. There are multiple tools in that category, and we're going to walk through where they fit into distribution planning. As you transition from accumulation into what I call the Venn diagram phase, and ultimately into distribution, you have to stop thinking of your portfolio as one big portfolio and start thinking in terms of smaller portfolios—investment positions—based on assigned spending. Dollars earmarked for a legacy position can be invested aggressively. Dollars earmarked for immediate spending—like the Go-Go reserve or the reserve for your MDF—need a degree of principal protection. This ties directly into the Secure Retirement Income Process and the See Through Portfolio and how we navigate asset positioning in retirement. Show Notes: Morningstar Buffered ETFs article The post Using Buffered ETFs: EDU #2607 appeared first on The Retirement and IRA Show.

Don and Tom dissect a Morningstar article naming the “best core stock funds” for 2026, noting the sharp decline in recommended actively managed funds and the dominance of low-cost index funds. While they applaud the shift away from expensive stock pickers, they argue Morningstar's “core” approach still leads to unnecessary complexity and heavy large-cap (especially S&P 500) concentration, with little exposure to small-cap, value, and emerging markets. They advocate instead for simple, globally diversified, factor-tilted funds like DFAW, AVGE, or AVGV. Listener questions cover switching from AVGE to AVGV inside an IRA (risk tolerance matters), improving a 32-year-old's 401(k) allocation (use a Roth IRA to add small/value exposure), and a sharp analogy comparing passive investing to driving with traffic rather than weaving aggressively for no gain. 0:04 Investing in a “wonderful world” by ignoring noise 1:14 AI audio tools that may replace editors (and shorten meetings) 5:06 Morningstar's 2026 “Best Core Funds” list shifts toward indexing 6:39 Why “core” still means large-cap heavy and incomplete diversification 9:50 The problem with piling into multiple S&P 500 funds 12:14 Why Dimensional and Avantis are missing from the list 13:26 One-fund global solutions: DFAW, AVGE, AVGV 17:44 Listener analogy: aggressive driving vs. active investing 19:08 IRA question: Switching from AVGE to AVGV and risk tolerance 20:34 32-year-old's 401(k) allocation and using a Roth IRA to add small/value 28:40 Retirement workshop plug and who should attend 30:21 Free fiduciary advice vs. actually hiring an advisor Learn more about your ad choices.

Today, I am speaking with the founder of a rather unique RV manufacturer which specializes in creating double-hulled fiberglass travel trailers. Scott Hubble, is the CEO of Awaken RV in Apple Creek, Ohio. He started the company as the result of what he called a midlife thought. He reached a point where he realized he was not having as much fun as he used to, and Scott wanted to build something around a community-driven RV niche. That search led him to the fiberglass trailer community, where he saw opportunity to create a new kind of RV. Scott said their first model is called the Morningstar, and he described it as a double-hull, dual-axle, fiberglass-molded travel trailer designed with comfort, capability and a more rugged look. In this interview, Scott explains what “double hull” construction means, why it matters for strength and insulation, and how Awaken RV is trying to deliver an RV that is fully-equipped right from the start. Scott broke down the practical benefits of Awaken RV's double-hull fiberglass design, including how the exterior and interior shells create multiple insulation points that can help with comfort in colder weather and hotter seasons. He shared more details about the Morningstar and the company's philosophy that everything is standard, with a focus on building a trailer that is ready for real travel and extended use. Scott said it is reasonable for buyers to pick up their RVs about five months after placing an order; however, some situations are running closer to three to five months depending on dealer slots. He also outlined Awaken RV's 5-3-1 warranty, which he explained is five years structural, three years craftsmanship, and one year on components. However, some components have even longer manufacturer warranties. To learn more, visit www.awakenrv.com or email the company at info@awakenrv.com. The company does give tours, and Workampers can call 330-778-0004 to schedule a visit.

Imagine a scene so haunting it echoes through six centuries: high-ranking officials digging up a man dead for 44 years just to burn his bones and scatter them in a river. Why? Because he dared to give the common man the Word of God in his own tongue. Join us as we journey back to the 14th century to meet John Wycliffe, the "Morning Star of the Reformation," and explore how he broke the "Latin chains" to end a spiritual famine. This episode is a deep dive into the courage, chaos, and linguistic revolution that paved the way for the Bible you hold today. Key TakeawaysThe Famine of the Word: Understanding the spiritual starvation of the Dark Ages and the fulfillment of the prophecy in Amos 8:11: "Behold, the days come, saith the Lord God, that I will send a famine in the land, not a famine of bread, nor a thirst for water, but of hearing the words of the Lord."Dominion by Grace: Wycliffe's radical idea that spiritual authority comes from God's grace, not an office—echoing Psalm 118:22: "The stone which the builders refused is become the head stone of the corner."The Lollard Movement: How "poor priests" and "mumblers" created an underground distribution network for the forbidden English scriptures.Linguistic Legacy: Discovering how Wycliffe didn't just translate the Bible; he molded the English language, giving us words like "glory," "mystery," and "treasure."The Global Ripple Effect: Why burning Wycliffe's bones failed to stop his message, eventually flowing from the River Swift to the great ocean of the Protestant Reformation.Call to ActionSubscribe to Coffee with Conrad for more deep dives into church history and prophetic insights.Share your thoughts: How does knowing the cost of the English Bible change the way you read it today?

Walt Disney (DIS) is a "story of patience," argues Stephen Kent. While the stock experienced a years-long consolidation, he sees the company making "money on autopilot" through its maturing streaming platform even as it faces the "YouTube question." Morningstar's Matt Dolgin adds that its experiences segment is doing great, though he warns of softness ahead as international visits slow. ======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Options involve risks and are not suitable for all investors.

This week on Sinica, I speak with Afra Wang, a writer working between London and the Bay Area, currently a fellow with Gov.AI. We're talking today about her recent WIRED piece on what might be China's most influential science fiction project you've never heard of: The Morning Star of Lingao (Língáo Qǐmíng 临高启明), a sprawling, crowdsourced novel about time travelers who bootstrap an industrial revolution in Ming Dynasty Hainan. More than a thought experiment in alternate history, it's the ur-text of China's "Industrial Party" (gōngyè dǎng 工业党) — the loose intellectual movement that sees engineering capability as the true source of national power. We discuss what the novel reveals about how China thinks about failure, modernity, and salvation, and why, just as Americans are waking up to China's industrial might, the worldview that helped produce it may already be losing its grip.5:27 – Being a cultural in-betweener: code-switching across moral and epistemic registers 10:25 – Double consciousness and converging aesthetic standards 12:05 – "The greatest Chinese science fiction" — an ironic title for a poorly written cult classic 14:18 – Bridging STEM and humanities: the KPI-coded language of tech optimization 16:08 – China's post-Industrial Party moment: from "try hard" to "lie flat" 17:01 – How widely known is Lingao?
